Beware of model railroaders and traditions. :=3

[lionkingcmsl]

It is some what of a tradition to name businesses that are puns. One of the more famous ones is: "Miracle Chair Co. - 'If it's a good chair its a Miracle!' "

And one of the other traditions is to name businesses after friends and their interests. :=3

So far I've got:
U-T Diving Supply. - "Home of the famous scuba diving tiger."
Kira's Blades - "If it's pointy we have it."

Coming soon to a H-O scale layout near me:
St. John's Church - Fr. K. D. Lyon Pastor (Of course this eventually will be a cathedral. :=3 )
Morrison's Liquor Store - "Specializing in the finest single malt Scotch!"
Fox and Kirin Architects
Gneech Graphic Arts
MLD Novelties and Gifts
Cerulean Games (in a sky blue store of course)
A branch office of the real Logix Development Corporation, which is operated by a certain Dragon on the left coast.
Tiffany Modeling Agency
Goodluck Lawyers
Cheetah Programming
for all of the otters: Otter Swimming Pool Equipment
Plonq's Fish Store

For Casey and RRWolf there will be railroad buildings named after you:
-Casey RR. Supply
-Wolf C&S Building

Of course the bar will be the one and only "The Watering Hole - No Predation Allowed"

and any others that I think up.

If your name is not here, it isn't that I'm snubbing you, but there is only so much I can do at the moment. :=3

Planning to use the Vollmer kit? I think they make both Gothic and Romanesque-style cathedral kits.

[lowen-kind.livejournal.com]

Yes, the big Vollmer Gothic style. :=3

Sir has excellent taste!

[quickcasey.livejournal.com]

Well, that's appropriate, I guess. Thanks for the immortalization in styrene.

Hmmmm... I wonder what the central office of MADCAT (Maryland And DC Area Transit) would look like...

But no RedWolf Comics and Tech? :)

[lowen-kind.livejournal.com]

MADCAT ouldn't be in consideration as the layout would probably be based in western PA, just outside of Johnstown.

As I said there will probably be more, but there are some friends of whom I really don't know their interests.

[strredwolf.livejournal.com]

I can only speculate on MADCAT (it's used in my webcomic). But I can't wait on everything else... :)

Think you can fit in "Hyena Tarot Fortunes (Where we laugh at fate, not at you)" as a tourist trap?

Ageis J. Hyena, signing off, over and out.

[lowen-kind.livejournal.com]

Very possibly. :=3

Second billing to a FOX?!!!?

[smrgol-t-kirin.livejournal.com]

Well, it's OK - the name flows better that way and Swiftie is a good guy after all.

Forgiven - For now.

[smrgol-t-kirin.livejournal.com]

OK this one's an inside joke (more than the rest)but how 'bout

Pete's Guns and Ammo.
David's Target Supplies.

Next to (or across the street from) each other of course.

A Camstone Munition Depot perhaps? Or a road sign to Camstone Naval Base?

[lowen-kind.livejournal.com]

Pete's and David's are good ones. With a red dot on the Dave's building, as if coming from Pete's. :=3
Of course Pete's has to be in an old quonset hut. :=3

Signs to Camstone Naval M. D. is also good. :=3

Hm I'm rather in favour of a 'cutting edge' pun of some sort for my shop's logo. :)

Course my brain refuses to cooperate and inform me what it thinks would work. heh

cool. Providing all your C&S needs.
